a few of you may remember that my wife had a kidney transplant early last year.

since then the kidney has been incredible, giving her a new lease on life.

it's really been good to see the light in her eyes that i had missed for quite a long time.. the counterpoint to this good news is the problems we have had with our son coltin.

Let Me Be There

Watching you grow
And going through the changes in your life
That's how I know
I always wanna be there
Whenever you feel you need a friend to lean on, here I am
Whenever you call, you know I'll be there

Let me be there in your morning
Let me be there in you night
Let me change whatever's wrong and make it right
Let me take you through that wonderland
That only two can share
All I ask you is let me be there

Wherever you go
Wherever you may wander in your life
Surely you know
I always wanna be there
Holding you hand
And standing by to catch you when you fall
Seeing you through
In everything you do

Let me be there in your morning
Let me be there in you night
Let me change whatever's wrong and make it right
Let me take you through that wonderland
That only two can share
All I ask you is let me be there

For those who have been pregnant....

by freshstart in

i wish i could be one those women who absolutely love pregnancy, i really do.

but i honestly don't care for it at all.

it was the same with my first pregnancy.

Now, now, Shirl ...

(((((((Fresh Start)))))))

You poor darling.

Try the lemon ginger tea, no sugar.

I had night sickness with my last - 9 each night for the first trimester.

How do you deal with your "down" time?

by compound complex in

by that, i don't mean so much what you do in your leisure time but how you manage the freedom to choose what you will or will not do.

off the wt treadmill, i no longer feel guilty about what is now my neglect of theocratic activity; however, after a nonstop week such as i have just lived through (barely), i am doing nothing, going nowhere, and accepting no new obligations (for the moment).

i can stare at the sky, enjoy the beautiful day and not worry that demons are rushing to fill the void in my empty skull.. you?.

Dealing with vertigo for 3 days now, I am up and about, but I have to watch my step.

Oh, dear.

I know exactly how you feel.

May the Holy One give you comfort and succor.

Hi, CoCo.

I just try to take it easy from dawn to dusk.

The medications I'm on tend to slow things down; I've resigned myself to the fact that my days of running hither and thither are gone.

The Humbling of Anthony

by Duncan in

i didn’t really care for anthony very much.

at the time of this story he was 13 or 14 years old, a clever and precocious kid down the hall.

he was extremely zealous about the truth and took it, and himself, very seriously.

Sad ... so sad.

Good writing, Duncan.

The Photoshop Tutorial page.

by ScenicViewer in

in flyinghighnow's wildflower page, she asked how an image could be added to another photo, and i thought to reply in a new thread.. i have noticed there are plenty of experienced photoshop users on this board who would likely have many tips to share with other users.. feel free to ask questions, or provide answers here.

my experience is limited, but i will help where i can, and i hope to learn from others.. there are many capable programs other than photoshop, so feel free to post about any of them you are familiar with.. there is often an easier way to do something, so any shortcuts are welcome!.

how to add an image to another photo.
